But, according to several opinion polls during his presidency, around 75% of Republican voters still considered Trump to be honest.

Key Points:

But, according to several opinion polls during his presidency, around 75% of Republican voters still considered Trump to be honest.
This form of speech relies on evidence and emphasises veracity and seeks to communicate the actual state of the world.
By this criterion, Donald Trump cannot be considered honest.
These are examples of an extreme form of belief-speaking that goes beyond the bounds of conventional democratic debate.

Whose ‘truth’ are we talking about?

To do this we set up and validated two “dictionaries” that captured those two components of honesty.
Using advanced mathematical analysis, we were able to measure the extent to which each tweet represented belief-speaking and fact-speaking, and how the two trended over time.
We found that for both parties, both belief-speaking and fact-speaking increased considerably after Trump’s election in 2016.
We used the news ratings agency NewsGuard to ascertain the quality of a domain being shared in a tweet.
He also interacts frequently with the European Commission's Join Research Centre in an advisory capacity and though scientific collaborations.
